I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 days. I interviewed at Capita (Leeds, England) in Mar 2015
Interview
Advised of the position by a recruiter. Was sent some online aptitude tests, upon passing those, the next step was an assessment centre at a hotel in Leeds, with 4 different tasks in a random order. A mock telephone call to a "customer" that had complained about a PPI policy, then a competency question based interview, following the STAR procedure. The next task was a test, the first part involved spell, fact and grammar checking a mock letter sent out to a customer, the second part was a logic based test, that involved some maths and english questions. The last stage for me was an observed group exercised, that I guess was to see how you worked as part of a team. We had to design a company party that respected the wishes of board members and staff and came under the set budget.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Describe a time where you had to deal with a difficult person.
Applied online, got a call the next day for an interview a few days after. Was told to learn about a few different companies beforehand.
The interview consisted of a group interview with other candidates, one to one interview, an english literacy test and a typing test.
The staff were very friendly and helpful, the interviewer came across a little less friendly though.
Got a call about an hour after the interview to offer me a job but it was at a different location, was told the shuttle bus to the location would take ten minutes but found out after I started that it was 30 minutes. Interview was on a friday and I started the following monday.
I applied online. I interviewed at Capita (Londres, Inglaterra) in Apr 2014
Interview
Very detailed which included both telephone and face to face interviews. The process was very interesting indeed.
A good experience and would recommend to others, especially if your looking to work for a large organisation.
